Soxfest

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 12:05 PM) Rick Porcello also wouldn't be in our rotation right now. Yes he would.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 11:49 AM) There's been a major change in philosophy since that draft though. I hope it gets better because quite frankly it can't get much worse. Sox are going to have to spend in round 1 and get best player available regardless of cost. If they want to improve the farm system, we all know after round 1 they did not spend anything the last 2 years. I do not like the major change in philosophy in that regard!

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 11:27 AM) Not true, of late, it seems the first round pick is where the Sox try to get the best overall talent and then work out a unique contract. After the first round...no, it doesn't matter. I disagree the year the Tigers took Porcello the Sox could of drafted him and did not want to pay what he wanted is one example. Walker to me was a major reach.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Sep 12, 2011 -> 11:03 AM) It's clear that even on Sept 2 that the top nine picks were already locked down by Houston, Baltimore, KC, Minnesota, Seattle, San Diego, Pittsburgh, Oakland and Washington. It wasn't going to be possible for the White Sox to win less games than those teams at that point in the season. Is the difference between the #10 overall pick (our lowest conceivable win total at that point) and the #18 overall pick (our highest conceivable finish is 13th best record) really that significant? No, because Sox will draft the cheapest, safest, easiest signable pick in round 1.

Hope Stewart has a good start to build on the 1 hitter!

Rios the GS about FN time.

Can they do .............can they do it...............1 time dam.

AR sucks at fundamentals.

4 times they have left the bases loaded today that in itself is very hard to do pathectic! Stranding 15 guys in the process.

Morel back to crap ab's.

Why let Dunn hit OG do something right!

QUOTE (God Loves The Infantry @ Sep 10, 2011 -> 05:59 PM) Alexei Ramirez has turned out to be a huge loser lately. Between his wimpy attempts at fielding throws to second or his pathetic at-bats with runners in scoring position, I'm not really sure anymore that this guy is untouchable. Then again, this team has so many losers, Alexei's mediocrity seems minor. Ugh. AR never has been untouchable to me.

This team blows with bases loaded and less than 2 outs!

Crainwreck 101!

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 9, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) Looks like Mark's ready for the offseason. Also a new team to me.

MB owned by LC dam.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Sep 9, 2011 -> 10:15 AM) MB56 farewell tour. I think so the time has come.

QUOTE (Cali @ Sep 9, 2011 -> 02:57 PM) Ewwwww You won't see the media report much about it though...........If it was the Cell it would be everywhere.

Alexander Karpovtsev is the guy Pat Foley ripped on air at the time as the worst Blackhawk teammate ever!

Congrats on 2000 hits.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Sep 8, 2011 -> 03:01 PM) I don't even care who wins. All the fun of Punk's earlier promo is gone IMO. The whole Punk/H/Nash angle just bores me. Seeing Triple Haytch open both shows every week bores me. Everything Nash says and does bores me. Even Punk's promos are starting to bore me. "Are your balls in your wife's purse", listing Nash's nicknames, it's just not grabbing me. Putting Punk in a program with either one of them would have been bad enough, but BOTH of them?? AND Johnny Ace??? UGH. BTW, if you want to see some real quality promo work, YouTube any of Johnny Ace's promos. Wow. I saw his crap promo's live he was horrid on a good day!

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 8, 2011 -> 10:19 PM) No Schmidt had 80 homers and walks combined in his rookie year? Morel had 10 as of a week ago. Thank you sir!

PK 8-1

QUOTE (MAX @ Sep 8, 2011 -> 09:49 PM) Yeah, what do you think of Mike Moustakas this year? He is not a Sox player who cares.

QUOTE (MAX @ Sep 8, 2011 -> 09:42 PM) He has shown improvement throughout the year when it comes to power and walks. Let's not get too crazy his numbers are horrid both in power and walks.
